Ragazze è uscita qualche nuova intervista su una rivista italiana? Perché ho visto qualcosa girare su Twitter....

It is! Sorry!! Thanks for telling me.

Here's the translation of Pride article. If you spot any mistake please do tell! Everything about Mika On the occasion of the release of his new album “No Place in Heaven”, Pride meets Mika. A funny and sincere dissertation about gay-culture myths and his heroes with one of the most incredible artists of today’s musical scene. No Place in Heaven is out on June 15th, fourth studio record for Mika. It took two years of work to produce a mature album, full of politics meanings, which one more time highlights the Lebanese singer’s skills to deal with important topics, facing them out with the gentleness of his melodies, approachable by anyone. From the sexual freedom hymn “Boum Boum Boum” to the acceptance of his homosexuality portrayed in “All she wants”, from the memory of his teenage-years (gay) heroes of “Good Guys” to the courage of dealing ironically with the fate (the suggestive “Last Party” tells the last moments of life of Freddie Mercury). But most of all the awareness that a love – as a unique and unrepeatable thing - won’t never be considered “ordinary” (Ordinary man). All these themes entwined with the melodies that ideologically represent the vehicle, give the listener, a soundtrack for the upcoming seasons. To Summer, the season which is meant to be the one of hot loves, Mika dedicated “Talk about you”, a times-gone kind of song in which quite obvious (and credited) allusions to “Sarà perchè ti amo” and ”Only want to be with you” (brought to fame by Dusty Sprignfield) can be found. An attention to details, which can easily be spotted in the title track, in which the well-known Alfred Douglas, (Oscar Wild’s lover), verse “The love that dare not speak its name” is quoted to state that “there’s no place in heaven for people like us”. At the moment of our arrival to the interview meeting, Mika was pleasantly surrounded by a bunch of very young fans to whom he reserved a special music lesson. Before spending time with us and wiht the Festival MIX Milano friends, for whom he recorded a special video for their crowdfunding campaign, he underwent a tough interview by “Famiglia Cristiana” (an Italian catholic newspaper). We can easily say it: from holy water to hell…. Mika: ”I’ve never read gay-culture-newspapers in Italy, you’re the first one for me… Amazing.” Pride: Yes, we’re the survivors… (general laugh). In “Good guys” you sing about your teenage-years gay heroes, in “All she wants” the courage of restarting a new life after a failed heterosexual marriage. We think your record is very politic. Your observation is right: a psychologist’s analysed it on Wired Magazine, stating that that’s almost a politic or sexuality politic-related work. In “All she wants” I speak about my mother too. I’ve always feared what she could think about me, about what me and her didn’t have the courage to talk about. I think some topics, when dealt with in a pop song, turn out to be much easier than spoken with in plain words. But, with your mother it all went smoothly… Yes but there’s always this kind of fear.There’s the idea that my mother will always have this little percentage of wish of having a son with a wife and many children. That might only be a 10%, but details are more interesting than the other 90%; so it’s funny to write songs dealing with this 10% of doubt. You’ve talked about sexuality politics. Can we say that BBB is a sexual freedom hymn? Yes, it’s an engaged song, even though the music and the lyrics seem funny. Nevertheless the French press has been very tough about me, by creating a controversy, it kind of became a hymn everywhere. That means that using lightness you can even deal with important themes. Indeed, your music is very accessible but at the same time, your lyrics are full of refined quotes and references: Alfred Kinsey and Ralph Waldo Emerson, just to quote a couple of them from Good Guys. How do you combine these two sides of your artist being, music and lyrics? For me immediacy is, metaphorically speaking, a sort of gun. The message, the thought is the bullet shot by that gun. I’ve always been a watcher, who looks people from outside, I even state it in “Good Wife”. In those years, I found out that melody has got a kind of power. It’s not anything dirty, it’s something amazing as it’s the key to freedom. It’s a speaker for my opinion and my voice. Without melody I wouldn’t have had the same power of expression. When I was younger I was desperate, in particular as I was 14 or 15 years old, melody was my safety valve. I’ve got a deep respect for pop music, to me it’s not something dirty, just like colours in fashion or in art that can assume a pornographic character. Melody is analogue in music, it can turn out being quite pornographic. But when melody is used in a more sincere and precise contest, it can turn out amazingly colourful. From the mix of the black of lyrics and the colours of music, the grey comes out, it describes the reality. The mix of those elements makes the message more accessible. In “Good Guys” you talk about your teenage-years myths, how’s your relationship with today’s icons? In “Good Guys” there aren’t just gay myths, but also “ordinary” or “alleged” gays, like Alfred Kinsey. Back then it would’ve been very hard for a scientist like him to carry out that kind of research coming out with his homosexuality. He wouldn’t have been considered serious. The original title of the song was “Where Have All The Gays Guys Gone”. The intention was provoking gays with a kind of accusation act. If I had to look for icons I would say we’re living a transitional moment, from the old information system, of media, internet, and the new reality which’s yet to come. Nowadays it’s more difficult to find an icon. The thing that scares me a bit is that today’s landmarks are all establishment-related to the materialistic condition. That’s the reason why I’m wondering: where are those icons that were important in your life? Not only physically but inside you too. Would you be bold enough to become an example like they’ve been, for the rest of your life? One of your BBB video is very cinema-like, full of quotes: from James Bond to spaghetti western, to Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon. Music was a powerful cultural change-tool in the 60ies or 70ies with those protest songs, glam rock and disco music sexual liberation. Movies had this role for the gay world in the 80ies and 90ies, giving a huge and authentic visibility to our community. Do you think cinema was as important as music? I would say it was as important as music. And television too, because it allowed you to think: “I’m as they are, and they do have a normal life. They can project and think about a normal life.” For all people who feel outcast in life, cinema has been extremely important and useful. The recent Elton John and Ricky Martin’s stances towards Dolce and Gabbana’s declarations, brings out the question whether gay artists should just talk through their art or express their politic opinion as well, as their voice can be a very powerful tool. What’s your thought about this? The topic is very important. To me the idea of family is very easy: when we talk about family, we’re talking about love. There’s no traditional love, it doesn’t exist, love doesn’t work in this way. The adjective “traditional” is very dangerous, in any way, both culturally and politically. You could perhaps talk about “traditional made chips”, or you could talk about cheese (he thinks over). Yes, traditional cheese is fine. (everyone laughs). But the traditional family concept is false, it’s a dangerous idea. That is not a problem, problems are: psychological and sexual abuses, economics problems, bullying, sexual education… Those are problems that have always existed, tradition doesn’t help solving them. Only love can. Where there’s love, there’s always a solution to all these issues, which represent the biggest challenges for all families; I think that’s the only important thing. The only thing we’ve got to politically stick up for, not the way people have their children. We’ve been impressed by Elton John and Ricky Martin’s statements about this… Why have you been impressed? Because we’re in Italy! One year ago I made a shooting for Vanity Fair’s cover, its title said: “Gay and father, why not?”. I intentionally wanted to seem like Bret Easton Ellis’ American Psycho main character, and I talked about how it is a conscious decision to be gay and father, the super conservative liberal playboy. I think there’s nothing wrong with it. I think the government should protect and take care of in vitro fertilization and support couples, and mainly women who don’t have fertile eggs. Potential abuses from the system are incredible and the only way to protect from in vitro fertilization abuses is legally and burocratically defending people who want to have babies. It’s not anything that needs discussion, it’s just a matter of ethic and responsibility and the question is not about those who are allowed to have babies but about how to protect anyone who have this desire and women who carry a child in their womb. Skin, your future colleague and judge in Xfactor said in an interview that a talent show is a very tough way as you start from having nothing and then explode and if you’re not able to learn a lot and fast you disappear. What would be your advice for a young talent to stay afloat in the show business, when talent itself isn’t enough? To me preparation and discipline are essential. Only discipline can give you the will to train when there’s no immediate payoff. Today we upload a photo on Instagram and we wait for a reaction. Where’s the reward for this tiny effort? What are comments like? Iper-reactivity is very counterproductive in the artistic process and it’s anti-creative. Being too reactive is a kind of creative cancer. XFactor is just a way to put light on a talent, which has to grow up little by little. It takes discipline and a mix of intelligence and resoluteness in such a strongly competitive contest.

Starting translating now

If there's nobody working on it I can translate it tonorrow

Guess I’m a watcher, not by choice, it’s just ( what I resolved? ) I think i may be hearing RESERVED. Might be something like "just what I had reserved" or "just what I've reserved" Trying to guess...

Ragazze, siete una squadra fortissimi ​ (come dice Checco Zalone!) spero di potervi incontrare da qualche parte quest'anno! Sarò una di quelle che vedrà il curly boy per la prima volta (o se tutto va come dovrebbe, 3 di fila in una settimana ) Buon lavoro a Myriam e grazie infinite a Mari che nel mio piccolo ho visto essere una gentilissima ed un'eccezionale Rep!

Great interview! Loved every single word of it!

Here it is! Sorry for the delay! The first Mika I meet in Milan is adrenalinic. He’s just finished to pose for this shooting. “A photographer should jostle you into doing things you didn’t think you would do when beginning. I believe it’s like skinning an onion, layer after layer” The second Mika, I meet at his place in London is sore. “It’s always this way”, he says, “Whenever I’m too tired, I get ill”. He’s worried as he’s about to fly to New York in a few days for a gig. At least the new album, No place in Heaven, has been ready for a long time now. It’ll be out the 15th of June, anticipated by the single Good Guys. Mika sits close to the glowing fireplace, in the room with us there’s also his Labrador (yeah we know she’s a Golden retriever but they got it wrong! ndr) who’s desperately trying to get his attention with a tennis ball. At a certain point, across the glass door I see his boyfriend, the English-Greek film-maker Andreas Dermanis passing. He doesn’t pronounce his name, but I saw them hunted out by paparazzi the last year and, even if I can only spot him for few seconds, he looks better-looking than he looked like in those photographs. On the table, there is a computer. Mika opens it up and looks for an extract he wants to read to me. As he told me in our previous meeting, he’s writing a book, of which you’ll have a few sneak peeks underneath, that he defines “a kind of poetic diary, made of chapters which won’t follow a chronological order”. When I listened to the recordings of that interview, I thought: what if I do something similar with this interview? So I allowed myself to use Mika’s words to build a portrait, made of chapters which don’t follow any alphabetic order. B as Book “I’m finishing writing it, it’ll be released in autumn for Rizzoli. It’s named “Diary of an accidental optimistic”. At the beginning it should have been a corpus made of articles I had already written. But as I went over them, I thought they sucked. So I revised them. At that point I noticed that I started to hate them, they sounded untrue. I threw them away and I started writing some stories talking about everything, from my ancestors in Syria, to my grandmother in California who ends up sitting next to Grace Kelly and bursts into tears, as she can’t understand English.” P as Pessimistic “Basically I think I am a pessimistic person. Pessimists are generally happier. Optimists are spoiled snotty kids. To them it’s just normal that everything is ok. Pessimists appreciate accomplishments more than them as they don’t take them for granted. Whenever something positive happens to me, I consider it ‘an accident’, the outcome of a perfect chaos. It helps undertaking tasks in a better way. Let’s imagine you’re writing a song: if you think it isn’t coming out fine, you put everything to make sure it won’t. Having doubts about ourselves it’s fine. Since I was I kid no one ever told me I was good. Whenever I received a compliment it was a true reward for me. In my family we’re all like this, we never congratulate one another. Unless we have a very special reason for.” J as Jail “My mother told me: “Someone like you can just end out in two ways: either you do something really good, or you fail miserably. Do you want to be famous or to end up in jail?” At the time I was 9, I remember that, as I had just started taking singing lessons. I think she saw in me some sort of attitude, I would make a fool of situations, I would behave out of the ordinary, all things that either could put me in troubles or make me achieve great outcomes. She understood she had to channel my energies in the right direction. A bored Mika would mean troubles for himself too, she knew that. And she’s been able too handle each one of his children (Mika has two older sisters, Yasmine and Paloma, and a younger sister and brother, Zuleika and Fortuné) in a total different way, according to their own personality. With me she was really tough.” B as Bow tie “When I was a little boy I would always arrive late at school. One hour, one hour and a half. I hated going to school because I couldn’t read or write, and in France the school system was rather cruel. When I went living in England and I started attending a school in London, I was told: “You’re not stupid, you’re dyslexic” (in 1984 Mika’s parents evacuated from Beirut because of the civil war and end up in France, then, when Mika was 9 the moved to UK). It was the first time. In a short period of time I passed from bad to top marks. Then they started considering me different for other reasons. In the French institute I attended, everyone would wear a uniform, while in the English one it wasn’t needed. I started wearing my clothes and there, started the problems. I would enter the school dressed with a bow tie and a dotted shirt. Today I dress in a quite normal way, sometimes I wonder whether they really won and changed the way I am.” W as Witch “It seems like everything in my life happened when I was 9, but it’s true that, in that period I was kicked out of school. I had a very bad teacher: every year she would choose 3-4 kids to snipe at. She would write poems to humiliate us and she would have the whole class reading it. She made me stay upright on the desk or on the chair for the whole hour. I started feeling bad so much that I stopped talking. Going to school was such a horrible thing that I wouldn’t even bother to carry my books with me. One morning I even left my whole school bag at home. My sister Paloma noticed that and brought it to me. When she entered my class, the teacher made me get up from the chair and started her usual “treatment”. My sister, who’s two years older than me, was so shocked that she ran home and told everything to my mother who called my father. He showed up in the yard where we used to gather, he approached the teacher and told her “Mrs, now I’ll tell you everything you told my son and we’ll see what’s gonna be like” and he stared loudly: “You’re stupid, you don’t do your work as you should” and so forth. The teacher fainted and she blamed him of beating her. My father and I were summoned. They told us “Don’t come back, ever.” We went away and I remember that walking home, me, my father and my sister would hold hands and sing “The witch is dead, the witch is dead” from The Wizard of Oz.” M as Mum “She works with me, as a stylist, whenever I have a shooting or I appear in a TV show. She was the one who had the idea to collaborate with Valentino, and she was also the one who, with my sister Paloma, introduced me to Christian Louboutin (who had never designed men shoes beforehand). She thinks out of modern industry schemes, she has a great sense of style and she pushes me to choose very eccentrics or rock clothes, more eccentrics than the ones I would feel normally at ease with. In the album there’s a track, ‘All she wants’, about a woman who only has a wish: “A different son from the one she has” Does it talk about my mother? Of course. I’m referring to how I felt when I was a kid, the feeling that to her, it would have been easier to have another kind of son and the suspicion that she was focusing her hopes on my brother, dreaming that at least him, would one day marry a nice Lebanese girl. When my mother listened to the song she liked it a lot, but we never talked about it, we never speak about such topics. Songs are there to talk about things you don’t say in another way. There’s another track, that was a big hit in France, it’s called Elle me dit. The sense of those lyrics is: “My mother tells me this, that, and that thing too, and then she tells me that one day she won’t be there anymore, and it’s the thing that I like better”. Sometimes in the open and joyful cruelty there’s much more love than in many catch-phrases. Romanticism scares me. I find it bad, dirty, source of delusions.” M as Money “My family lost everything twice. We know what’s like to have money and not to have them at all. There’s a chapter in my book where I talk about this: we’re travelling to southern France and we have to stop to pass the night. How can you find a respectable place for two adults, 5 kids and a bunny with few money in your pockets? Luckily my mother has always a solution. Her father left Damascus on the back of a donkey and landed at Ellis Island as many other migrants. In little time he made fortune and built a big family who was then left without money once he passed away. As everyone who’s grown up in wealth and found themselves without anything, my mother has always fought to remain the same person even where there were no money at all. That’s a characteristic she passed us. During hard periods she would hold the situation in her hands using music and creativity, that’s why we’ve all become artists. When you’ve got nothing, you can always create something, you can play or draw. I saved my first earnings to buy my house in London. The idea of having it made me feel surer. Even if now I’m economically ok, I imposed myself a lot of rules and restrictions: I never allow money to orientate my choices and I use it carefully. But when I go on holiday, I never travel alone: I invite over my friends, my family and their friends. The same thing happens when I go out for dinner. I don’t like been lonely. From tours I’ve never earned anything because I spend everything in settings, musicians, lights. Concerts have to carry the audience in what they imagine as my universe and make sure that they think “That’s exactly how I expected it to be like””. F as Family My mother and My father are still together. Rarely do I speak about him as he’s a very reserved person. He works as a consultant; he lives between Bahrein and Dubai, in the Middle East. He’s never lived in the same place for more than 6 months in a row. He was in Kuwait just before the first Gulf War broke out and he was taken hostage by the Iraqi. When he was finally released, we experienced a very odd feeling. When you are a kid, you’re so happy about the idea of your father coming back home that when the reality is different from what you had imagined it to be like, you reject it. He wasn’t as we remembered him to be, he was skinny with a beard. For a while we wouldn’t call him dad, we would just refer to him as Mike. Nowadays we live scattered around the world. Zuleika studied jewel design and lives between Dubai and Bangkok; Paloma and my brother, who studies Architectures, are in London: Yasmine (aka DaWack, collaborates with Mika as illustrator) is in NY. G as Gay Some time ago I heard a man in France saying: “Nowadays only gays want to get married”. maybe he was being fun but it can be very dangerous to denigrate normality. We’re not talking about becoming all the same, we’re talking about granting freedom of choice, to protect people from discrimination, to give everyone the same tools to achieve goals in life. Was once the gay community more creative as it was isolated? Let’s remember that the aim of all those expressions in art, literature and music was to obtain equality. They haven’t fought for normality but for rights equality. There are countries in the world where men and women are still lynched, even killed because gay. Saying that the normalisation of homosexuality made gays less creative would be like saying that the fight for sex equality made women less interesting. G as Good New “The song Last Party, in the new album, is inspired by a true story. When Freddie Mercury found out he had AIDS, he threw a party, a kind of orgy to be honest. I wondered: how do people react when facing terrible news? I’ll never forget the night when my sister Paloma fell from a window (in 2010, doctors feared she could be paralized). A friend of her knocked at my door at 4 o’clock in the morning. I was in boxers and t-shirt, I ran outside, without clothes, without shoes, till I reached her place. The Police stopped me. They told me I could decide: I could wait until the ambulance came or I could go and see her right away. I thought I had to see with my eyes what had happened to face the situation. From that moment I can’t stand people knocking at my door. Outside my dressing room there’s always a sign: “Don’t knock”. And I’ve never bought white flowers again: that night my sister had organized a party to inaugurate her new flat and as a gift I had sent her hundreds of white flowers. How did I react to that? At the beginning in a rational way: I cancelled all my work commitments to stay in London with her. Then after I knew that she was in life danger I left. I took a flight to Montreal. During the first night I spent there I wrote Underwater, the day after I wrote Origin of Love. I didn't know what I would do after. I told my boyfriend I would never come back. It's been the only time we've broken up, to win his love back I had to fight hard. When he saw me coming back me he did not say "You're welcome" L as Love “We’ve been together for 8 years but if in the beginning you had asked me: Do you think it can last long? I would’ve burst out laughing, “Impossible”. We’re still together, I don’t know the reason why, it’s just the right thing for both of us. The relationship between my mother and him is turbulent at times. You can imagine: a Lebanese and a Greek together. Let’s say they’re both very territorial. Every time we’ve got a little free time, we meet somewhere: at the end we spend a lot of time together. It’s weird how distance sometimes gets people closer.

I'm nearly done with the translation, I miss the last bit. I had a unexpected commitment. Give me a moment

Thank you so much Lucrezia, in my little village it won't be available untill tomorrow! I'll translate it now as I've got time, anyone already on it?

It's just the last part, as you asked, I think tomorrow you'll have the whole thing right away Ho preso un volo per Montréal. La prima notte che trascorsi là scrissi Underwater, il giorno dopoOrigin Of Love. Non sapevo che cosa avrei fatto dopo». Mika racconta anche che, prima di partire, aveva detto addio al suo compagno, il film-maker di origini greco-inglesi Andreas Dermanis, con cui ha una relazione da otto anni. «Gli ho detto che non sarei più tornato. È stata l’unica volta che ci siamo lasciati. Per riconquistarlo ho dovuto darmi parecchio da fare. Quando mi ha rivisto non mi ha detto: “Prego, accomodati”». "I took a flight to Montreal. During the first night I spent there I wrote Underwater, the day after I wrote Origin of Love. I didn't know what i would do after." Mika also says that before leaving he broke up with his boyfriend, the half-Greek, half-English film-maker Andreas Dermanis, with whom he has been in a relationship for 8 years. "I told him I would never come back. It's been the only time we've broken up, to win his love back I had to fight hard. When he saw me coming back me he did not say "You're welcome"

Come! I'm very likely going as it's very close to my place and it's not on a weekend! I could give you a guided tour of the city if we meet early! Bergamo is wonderful!

Really interesting! Thanks for posting!

Ti parla quella che in un'estate si è fatta 16 date di un tour di un gruppo locale che mi piaceva... Mai uno uguale....

But what if he just does all this because he likes it? Maybe it's not a problem of not keeping up with the touring life, maybe it's not a problem of wanting to stop for a while to spend a few months of family life, maybe he just likes all this, a little bit of tour and a little bit of TV... Once he's happy, (and doesn't disappear) I don't care....

Non capiscono!!!

I agree, I think it's perfect this way. Spending some time traveling, touring and promoting, releasing the new album and doing gigs but at the same time being able to spend a few months in the same city living some family life that I think he needs at a certain point after months of being away from home.
